FP stops responding trying to open a website from My Network Place

I believe I've encountered this issue previously and found a fix, but I
didn't document it...and its back.

I can open a website fine if I allow FP to auto open that last edited site
when I launch it. If I try to open a website after the program is loaded, the
My Network Places explorer comes up (as normal), but hangs and never
populates with any sites to choose from.

I can eventually force close FP. When I bring up the Task Manager, I can see
that FrontPage is still running and any attempt to open another site starts
another instance of FrontPage that will eventually launch onscreen once I
kill the .exe that was the first offender in Task Manager.

Thanks in advance.
 
You have network folder corruption
- you would probably get the same empty screen opening network folder from windows
Try this http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=287402
